The GEXF file didn't work for me either. But I did extract the dependencies from the DOT file and ran that through Gephi to get this: http://www.robweir.com/aoo/aoo-modules.svg The size of each node is proportionate to the "in-degree", i.e., the number of incoming dependencies. The colors group sets of modules that are highly interconnected. -Rob > Then I tried the DOT file format [3] for visualization with dot of the > graphviz package.
